Shooting jets of water downward, a team of acrobats dressed in glowing suits lit up the night over a lake in the Russian National Park of Zavidovo last weekend, with exploding fireworks and lasers providing a breathtaking backdrop.

Tightrope walking may be one of the oldest acrobatic practices, but one of the youngest practitioners of the art has become spectacularly good at it. 6-year-old Zhang Wang started working on his balancing act about a year ago when his dad came up with the idea to train his little son as an acrobat in order to build his self-confidence and independence. Zhang wang took to tightrope walking, or funambulism as it is sometimes called, like a fish to water and can now balance his way across a wire backward and even blindfolded.
This little four-year-old boy may look like your average toddler, but that mischievious grin hides a super strong body. Four-year-old Zhenya Kuzmenkov can lift this 8.8 pound kettleball a whopping 117 times and you can tell by the smile on his face that he loves doing it too. Little Zhenya caused a sensation when he lifted the kettleball over a hundred times during the Victory Record fitness event held on May 9th in the Irkutsk Region of Russia. Zhenya lifts with his father Aleksandr, a professional athlete, and his 11-year-old sister Yana, who has been lifting for 2 years and can swing the 8.8 pound kettleball a whopping 550 times already. Of course, Zhenya is still just a kid, and lifting weights at a very young age can have negative effects on children's growth. However, Zhenya's dad regularly consults with experts to figure out the appropriate weight limit for his little tyke and never exceeds the maximum. Of course, Zhenya is a kid at heart and loves to play, so his dad mixes in play time with training. Aleksandr brought his kids to train with him and, unexpectedly, weighlifting became a family hobby, and they now regularly train together.
